Back to AtD. Another use of 'grace"

[Bled Welder]

First off, I don't know who Faye Weldon is.  I'm not a googly Googler, so
I'm not looking it up..

Ah, it took me on the  second part. What is a bastard?  What does it mean?.
 Just sort of, when you use words, you have something in mind.  Unless you
don't.  And I think that if you're targeting me, it's fair that I want
accountablity.

What do you mean by bastard.  Because  I can take that in any number of
ways.

Trust me man, I've always digged you Romeo, but your comment here has a
smell of off-handed iron hand-rod about it.
